Yes! Attending Reunion
Comments:

I've lived a great life, and owe a great amount of my good fortune to being from Blue Island. At 54 decided to write-now have several award winning books published. Check them out at www.delstaecker.com or buy thru Amazon
School Story:

I left DDE in the middle of our 2nd year after missing a great number of classes due to illness. It was like I died and just disappeared. Getting reconnected to all in the Class of 68 is wonderful.

Ditto to Christine's praise for the work you do on our behalf. Special thanks comes from me because you included me as a member even though I did not graduate with the class. I want them to know that due to being in the group, I attended the 50th reunion with DDEHS instead of attending the class reunion of the Vero Beach FL high school I attended after leaving Blue Island. BI is and always will be "my hometown." The impact on my life from being raised in and around BI is reflected in all my books, but most in ANOTHER SOUTHSIDE which was the reason I was on WGN 720 AM radio twice for interviews. Thanks Fred-keep up the stellar work!

i see that you still reside in Blue Island. How do you like it? My family went to Florida after my illness, but I always think about growing up in BI. Over the years it has crept into evry bit of my writings. Hope you are well and enjoying life in that wonderful town.
